Hello All,

I have been viewing professional soldiers for quite some time now and joined somewhat recently. I am very grateful for this site as it answered all the questions I had. I am also happy to say I have enlisted with an 18x contract and ship out on November 5th, 2013. If there is anyone else shipping out around that time feel free to PM me.

I was a former Greenside Corpsman and while going to school after my time in service was done I linked up with a company teaching LTT. This is where I had an awesome experience being mentored by QPs and learning what SF is really all about. The more I talked with these guys and researched SF I realized this is where I belong and what I want to do. For the last two years I've been trying to get into the Ohio Guard to link up with 19th Group to have a shot at SFAS, but through poor decision making on my part in 2008 I require a waiver. For now I will continue to march on with my pt/rucking until I finally get a waiver or I become to old to join.

Love "Message for Garcia" if only I had been given that reading assignment years ago.

Cheers,
JP

Afternoon all! It's high time I quit lurking and introduce myself. I'm Nathan, Northern CA native transplanted to high desert country, NV. No military affiliation, I enjoy traversing mountains, reading books, current events and long walks on the beach!

Glad to be here, Prost!

Hello I have been a big fan of the SF since I met a couple of guys in Georgia. I was airborne stationed in Alaska. I now have 5 girls and am always busy. I am looking forward to learning a lot and having some good discussions.

Howdy, name is Paul, I've been in the Army for about 15 years now. Live up in the Last Frontier and belong to a LRS unit up here. MOS 11B, 25C, 25U. Senior rated Jumpmaster, that's about it.

not too much to say about myself really. Spend a lot of time in the woods hunting and camping. In the winter here you can find me playing or reffing Ice Hockey.

I shoot a lot; I like to compete in IDPA matches and shoot in order to omprove my skills. I reload my ammo because of how much I like to shoot.

Greetings,

My name is Blake, and I just got done with a double major in Nursing and Kinesiology from Texas A&M University. I've been thinking for some time now that once I got out into the civilian workforce, if I still felt unsatisfied and like I was wasting my potential, then I would strive my hardest for the Army SF. Well..here I am, 3 months into a cush, well paying job in a great emergency department, and that desire for something greater is still there. I will be talking to a recruiter this week and telling him that I'm good to go asap.

Respectfully,

Blake
Texas A&M Class '2013

Hello,
I am a Public Affairs NCO at Bragg, getting ready for SFAS. My PT test is Thursday, so hope it goes well as it is the first step. I reclassed from truck driver to this (not my choice) and once I saw how it was, I knew it wasn't for me. I have always wanted to be a part of the elite. Hope all goes well in SFAS.

Welcome all.

Enjoy your stay.

If you have a question search first - a few times in different ways - then ask.

Hello my name is Eric. I appreciate being a guest on your site. Thank you for all your service. SF is my life long goal and I am working extremely hard to achieve it.

Hello all,

Graduated a few years ago from the Delta course. Currently with 20th GRP out of Maryland. Now that I've been around for at least 5 minutes, I figured I could participate in this forum after lurking around here for years...

Good Afternoon,

My name is Jordan, have been a fan of the site for about 4 months now. Have learned a BUNCH, and would like to thank everyone for there posts. I am 23 and leave in about a month for Basic under a 18X contract. I am Prior-Service Air Force, was in the Pipeline for TACP (1C431), but failed out due to lack of preparation. Have been out of the Air Force for almost a year, and have since then refocused and have been training non-stop since the day I got out. Ready for the next chapter in my life to start.

Hello my name is Ryan and I am an E-6 Stationed in Fort Bragg currently with CA. I have a selection date of 25 Oct 2013. I have set my goals for SF because I want to be a part of a Elite team. I want to be the quiet professional. I am 26 years old and currently a 25C (radio operator). my eyes were opened to this world when I was stationed with C co. 1/10 in stuttgart germany.

My name is Brandon. Been in group since 2009 first stationed in the Stu, "Nous Defions" now Colorado "Nous Defions". As you all may see I am a horrible dirty lurker. I'm not big on forums but have been on this one for sometime and have found the answer to quite a few of my questions. Guess I already broke the number one rule on forums, I had no intro posted and posted elsewhere first. Like I said I'm not the best on forums. Anyways, thus far I have enjoyed this site.

Thanks
